M >1 ^pi-Inns, Ark., Sept. 8?The KxcCUItvo Committee of the Southern l otion association continued its sessions tliis afternoon and adjourned subject to the call of President Harvle Jordan. The principal business done today was the consideration of the resolution beaded by the associu lion to form a stock corporation of a half million doilars to take t are of cotton ill the South. It placed the shares or stock at live doliais each and provided for opening hooks ol subscription in ?acli county of the ? cotton licit. The resolution was passed over as unfinished business. But a committee was named to prepare a charter and proceed to organize. President Jordan explaining the proposition said the object would be to buy cotton m cpen markets, v> liei^-offered bel' W the price lixed as a minimum *" l>> the association, store it in warehouses and hold until the minimum price is reached. The corpc.ation is to take such cotton when It is forced in the market by those unable to car- ' i.v t, and to meet, such maturing ob ligations By this plan the cotton forced on I lie market will be kepi out of the hands of the speculators and je.xp rtersandtho regular marketers w wiil KCt t lie benelit prices. It, is heheved it will protect the growers, in maintaining a fair and profitable prict ? for cotton, President Jordan said the comniiit.cc made no estimate o/ the probable crop, as it is too early, but t'lOm n'ports received, evidently the crop has ^really deteriorated it 11N> the lasl two weeks lly the Asso ! dated l'icss ; People ; Will 1 j Eat I Bread u liether Advertise 1 or not, but you can create an appetite and enjoy HO-< A K fi it you occasionally S( participate in some out- . ?liior sports, and at ;tl these prices you \ jj 'A l !n A Bicycle (worked over) ...
